AVATAR AANG: THE LAST AIRBENDER MOVIE REVIEW
Water. Earth. Fire. Air. 20 years after Nickelodeon gave us one of the greatest TV series of all-time, Team Avatar is back to the beloved animated continuity, catching up with an older Aang, Katara, Sokka, Toph, and Zuko as they navigate a world still healing from the Hundred Year War. But peace doesn’t mean the Avatar gets a vacation. The discovery of another surviving Airbender sends the gang on a new adventure involving ancient powers, the future of the Air Nomads, and ample amounts of action executed in the way this series deserves and should only ever be done: animated on the highest level. Kate, Eoin, and T.C. enter the One Of Us Air Temple to look at Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender and bend some opinions, revisit a world they’ve loved for years, and determine whether this long-awaited return makes the fandom proud or deserves a one-way trip beneath Lake Laogai.

Eoin Daly
Born and raised in Dublin Ireland, Eoin currently lives in London and has been an avid film lover from as far back as they can remember. Eoin enjoys going to the cinema weekly regardless of the film: new, old, or the most random title. They have no preconceived notions when taking in a new film. They tend to look for the good in any film they watch and will always love the art form. They are a major fan of actress-led cinema and will never apologize for this one film bias.
Kate Chambers (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)
Kate is a certified horror fiend and Horse Girl™. Her name isn’t short for anything. A native Austinite, she graduated with a BFA in Film Production from the University of Colorado Boulder then returned to the Lone Star State to make her home amid the cinephiles of the Alamo Drafthouse and the Austin Film Society. In her spare time, you can find her either down at the barn with her noble steed Jazz, watching as many movies as possible (often at work), cuddling with her pair of black cats and writing horror scripts, or nursing a beer in any available body of water… or doing Duolingo, where she’s currently on a 1000+ day streak.
